Putting together a Sweet Sixteen Party can be
overwhelming and frightening
and it is a lot of work. Not everyone chooses to go as elaborate and
detailed as others.
The thing is there really is no right or wrong way to throw a party.
The key is to try
to be completely unique.

Determine your Budget: The very first step of any party
would be to set a realistic
budget for your event. Setting a budget can often be rather difficult,
especially when money
is tight. Before setting any budget you should contact some of your
local Chicago vendors
and see what their average rates are. You may think party favors cost
$40, but in reality
they could turn out to cost $200. Many vendors usually have minimums;
you should try to
get this information up front.

Not everyone chooses to theme their Chicago
Sweet Sixteen birthday party,
but lately this is becoming more of a trend. Some of the more popular
themes we've seen
are masquerades, highlighter parties, pretty in pink, and of course the
night club theme.
Once you've selected a theme you'll want to choose colors that
complement the theme.
Your entertainment company may also be able to add your son
or daughter's name into
their computerized lighting. Lighting is often overlooked when planning
a Sweet 16, but it
can really make your party shine!

Photography or Photo booths: Having a professional
photographer is
becoming quite a trend. Another option would be to rent a
photo
booth for the night. These can be a lot of fun for the kids
and everyone will have
a photo keepsake to take home from the event.

tri-state area that is highly skilled

works tirelessly to make a complete record of unfolding events. They
are very discrete
and never interrupt the flow of the drama. The album will be
overflowing with
happy memories that can be relived again and again for many years to
come.

Will there be an
After party: So the official party is over and it's time for the after
party.
This party may be for your son or daughter's closest friends to hang
out afterwards. Often
time people choose to get hotel rooms or have a sleepover
back at the house with food,
drinks, and a movie. Having a solid plan for after the party will make
sure your day is complete.
